spooky invasion

Chapter 554
When Li Yue returned to the strange rock slope, his state was obviously different from usual.

In the battle just now, the consumption of the five natives, coupled with the full running during the return process, made her, who participated in the battle for the first time, feel exhausted.

Originally, she wanted to kill Zheng Kang in one go, but when she went out in person and failed, her spirit complied with the words of getting weaker and exhausted again and again.

"Little Yueyue, what's the matter with you? Are you injured?" Tong Feifei couldn't help being extremely surprised to see Li Yue leaning against a boulder and closing her eyes without saying a word as soon as she came back.

Li Yue adjusted his breath for a while, then let out a mouthful of turbid air, and shook his head slowly: "I'm fine."

"Have you seen Zheng Kang?"

Li Yue nodded lightly: "There was a fight, but it was still a little close. I'm sorry everyone."

What does almost mean?
Tong Feifei was a little puzzled, but it was inconvenient to ask.

Did he almost kill Zheng Kang, or was he killed by Zheng Kang?
Qin Hao, who was squatting aside and honest, couldn't help but said: "I said that Zheng Kang is evil and difficult to deal with. He may not be particularly outstanding in his own strength, but the pendant on his chest is very strange and mysterious, as if There is a strange power that can drive ghosts, concoct ghosts, and communicate with ghosts..."

Li Yue said slowly: "The pendant is powerful, but the pendant was damaged by me, so it should be quite damaged."

Tong Feifei's eyes lit up: "So, Xiao Yueyue, did you almost kill Zheng Kang? If he has a powerful pendant and the pendant is destroyed again, doesn't it mean that he is now a dog in the water?"

"Don't think about it, he has an evil spirit that protects him, which is especially powerful, and he has been protecting him all the time. As long as that evil spirit is there, it will be very difficult to kill Zheng Kang."

With the help of the masking spray, Li Yue was unable to complete the attack.

Now no matter who is present, it is impossible to get close to Zheng Kang, let alone confront that terrifying evil spirit.

Qin Hao seemed to want to prove his foresight: "I just said, your plan is too aggressive. Fortunately, you are fine. By the way, where is brother Jiang Yue? Didn't he go with you?"

"He'll be fine."

Although Jiang Yue has not returned yet, Li Yue has always had boundless confidence in Jiang Yue.

"I also hope he's okay. In short, it's too aggressive to take the initiative to attack this kind of plan. We should make good use of the geographical advantage..."

"There is no problem with the plan, at least it achieved the effect of deterring Zheng Kang, and also destroyed his defense system, which served the purpose of psychological deterrence."

In terms of the results, the failure to eliminate Zheng Kang obviously failed to achieve the tactical intention.

But from the perspective of the grand strategic direction, Zheng Kang was deterred, and it was more or less deterrent to him.And Zheng Kang's rhythm will definitely be disrupted.

In this kind of confrontation that consumes each other, one ebbs and another.

The momentum over there has been suppressed, and the situation here will naturally be better.

If Zheng Kang was severely damaged, he might not have the confidence and strength to make trouble again.

But Tong Feifei seemed extremely calm at the moment.

"Brother Yue didn't come back, so we can't take it lightly. Qin Hao, please stop beeping a few words, no one will think you are dumb if you don't speak. If you want to survive, be honest, don't pretend to be dead when it's your turn to do your best."

Qin Hao's mouth moved, but he didn't dare to contradict anything after all.

Just when everyone was worried about Jiang Yue's delay in returning, Jiang Yue's situation was very relaxed.

Taking Wu Dingchao's ghost form around the area, followed by several fierce ghosts.

Jiang Yue didn't intend to fight these ghosts bloody, but just led them around in circles.

It's not that Jiang Yue doesn't have the strength to fight, but the current situation, Jiang Yue doesn't want to fight with all his strength.

After all, the night is still long, and the dawn is still a long time away.

At this time, fighting too hard, playing all the cards in the hole may not be a rational and smart choice in this long night.

The most important thing is that he is not afraid of Wu Dingchao, but he is also followed by several other vicious ghosts. If these ghosts are entangled, they may cause trouble.

The main purpose of this trip is to buy time for Li Yue and hold back these powerful ghosts.

As long as Li Yue can successfully deal with Zheng Kang, then these ghosts who have lost control will definitely become wandering soldiers.

Ghosts that cannot be united together cannot cause much destructive power.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and Wu Dingchao's violent temper did not change even after he became a ghost.

Following Jiang Yue in circles, Wu Dingchao's ferocity was constantly aroused, and the hatred for Jiang Yue quickly accumulated, obviously to make Jiang Yue stronger.

What Jiang Yue copied was Qin's proud form, and the order Wu Dingchao received was to kill Qin's proud.

But under such a fierce pursuit, he still couldn't catch up with the opponent, which undoubtedly made Wu Dingchao's anger intensify rapidly.

Jiang Yue kept hanging these ghosts, neither throwing them too far, nor getting too close, always keeping a glimmer of hope for them, making them feel that if they continue to chase, they will definitely catch up.

It was this illusion that he would definitely be able to catch up, hanging on to these ghosts and sticking to Jiang Yue's back like a gum.

Jiang Yue would occasionally observe to see if he could find an opportunity to launch some surprise attacks on Wu Dingchao's ghost form.

What surprised him was that although Wu Dingchao had turned into a ghost, his fighting instincts remained very good, leaving no obvious opportunities for Jiang Yue.

After turning into a ghost form, Wu Dingchao's whereabouts became more erratic. As an opponent, he actually became more difficult to deal with.

These factors were intertwined, which made Jiang Yue give up his plan of surprise attack and concentrate on leading the opponent around in circles.

All the while keeping an eye on the time.

His previous agreement with Li Yue was within an hour.

Going around like this for several times, it took almost an hour.Considering that it would take some time to return, Jiang Yue decided not to tease them anymore.

Quickly restore the form of the deity, use all your strength to activate the amulet, go around in a circle, and quickly turn back.

Wu Dingchao and other ghosts were trying their best to follow Qin Zihao's clues, but unexpectedly, the clues were suddenly interrupted, as if they disappeared out of thin air.

This made these ghosts fall into a momentary confusion.

After all, it is a ghost, and it is not the kind of old ghost that has been formed for hundreds of years. After all, it is still weaker in spiritual intelligence. It lingered in the area where Qin's pride was interrupted for a long time.

Eventually, they found a clue.

This trace of clue is another breath left by human beings.

A completely different breath.

What to do now?
Zheng Kang's order is to hunt down and kill Qin Hao, which must be completed.

But at the moment, Qin Zixuan's clues were suddenly interrupted, which undoubtedly left these ghosts at a loss.

Although another human breath was found, it was not Qin's pride at all.

If you chase after that human breath, even if you catch up, what's the use?On the contrary, it may make Qin proud to slip away.

Although the spiritual intelligence of ghosts is not as good as that of humans, they still exist after all.

Before, Qin Yao had escaped tracking once by escaping the shell of the golden cicada.

This time, another human breath suddenly appeared. Could it be another old trick, another version of the golden cicada escaping its shell?
Yes, it must be so!

Wu Dingchao found that this possibility was extremely high.

The hateful Qin Hao, actually wanted to use the same routine to escape?

After communicating with the ghosts, Wu Dingchao firmly stated that he must not follow the human breath, otherwise he must be a puppet substitute again. This is Qin's old trick repeated.

It is extremely important to search for other directions seriously. Wu Dingchao must have used something to temporarily hide his aura when he used this golden cicada's shelling trick.

As long as you go deeper and more carefully, you will definitely find clues.

Wu Dingchao's preconceived judgment did not even occur to Jiang Yue, and it provided great convenience for Jiang Yue's return.

He didn't even think that the group of ghosts who were stalking and stalking him would stop chasing him?

Jiang Yue wondered for a while, was the other party up to some conspiracy?
However, in this case, it seems that there are not many tricks.

Go after it, or don't go after it.

Not chasing him will only lead to further distance. Even if there is any conspiracy, there must be room for it?
The distance is getting farther and farther, and this conspiracy is useless.

Jiang Yue deliberately slowed down, and did not wait for Wu Dingchao and other ghosts to catch up several times.

"It's strange, could it be that they won't notice my clues if I switch back to the deity?"

Jiang Yue knew that this was impossible.

The fighting power of ghosts may be strong or weak, but their sensitivity to human breath is absolutely astonishing.

Those little ghosts he met back then, even if they were D-level, had an instinctive sensitivity to humans, and could easily lock onto the breath of humans and follow them.

As long as there is a little breath left, it is absolutely impossible not to catch up.

It was the bottle of Qin Hao's spray that had the magical effect of temporarily hiding the human breath. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible to escape the pursuit of ghosts.

"Forget it, it's not a bad thing if you don't chase after him."

Jiang Yue had Li Yue's situation in mind.

The agreed time has come, and Li Yue is a steady character. At this time, no matter whether he wins or loses, the outcome of the battle must be decided.

Although Jiang Yue repeatedly told Li Yue not to force him to do something, judging from Li Yue's reaction, Jiang Yue probably wouldn't stand still.

She has a strong desire to attack.

Not long after, Jiang Yue approached Zheng Kang's area.

However, from afar, he discovered that there seemed to be no movement in that area.

Whether it is a person or a ghost, it seems that they have all dispersed.

Jiang Yue approached quickly, and found that there were no people and no ghosts lingering at the scene.

However, the scene was a mess, and the void was filled with the remnants of the fierce battle, especially in the core area, where there were several large pits.

Jiang Yue checked for a while and found that there was no blood or wreckage at the scene.

There were some remaining breaths of ghosts dissipated, but they were already very weak. If Jiang Yue was not sensitive, he could hardly feel them.

"She still made a move after all."

Jiang Yue sighed lightly. Although he didn't know how the battle was going, judging from the scene, at least Li Yue didn't suffer.

Jiang Yue knew that Li Yue possessed the skill of manipulating soil attributes, but how to use it in battle was not clear to Jiang Yue, but judging from the scene, the traces on the scene were obviously in line with Li Yue's skill characteristics.

No new clues could be found, and Jiang Yue didn't linger, and quickly headed towards the strange rock slope.

He made an agreement with Li Yue that if he didn't meet at the battle scene, he would return to the strange rock slope.

This place is not very far from the strange rock slope, and after urging the amulet with all his strength, Jiang Yue came to the periphery of the strange rock slope in a short time.

Before he got close, Jiang Yue sensed something was wrong.

In the dense forest ahead, some movement could be faintly heard.

These movements should not be small, but they seemed to be blocked by some force, and when they reached Jiang Yue, the movements were obviously so subtle that they were almost undetectable.

But Jiang Yue's strong sensing ability still sensed this subtle movement.

This dense forest is the deepest and most secret area around the strange rock slope.

If the strange rock slope is used as a camp, then the outside world wants to attack the strange rock slope. The best ambush terrain is actually this dense forest.

Because it's so easy to hide.

"Could it be that guy Zheng Kang is lurking here, ready to attack Weishipo?"

Jiang Yue had an idea.

Instinctively came up with an idea, and looked closer to the past.

It is extremely difficult for Zheng Kang to manipulate so many ghosts, and it is almost impossible to get close without being discovered.

But Jiang Yue didn't intend to meet Zheng Kang, as long as he found out that ghosts were entrenched in this dense forest, he could basically be sure.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yue was as light as a swallow, jumped into the dense forest, and used the big trees as cover to sneak into the depths of the dense forest step by step.

What surprised him was that he didn't meet a single ghost, let alone Zheng Kang.

The area of ​​this dense forest is not small, but Jiang Yue went all the way in, and the depth was almost one-third deep. No matter how big Zheng Kang was, he should arrange a few little ghosts to stand guard in this position, right?
not at all!
Not a single ghost was seen.

"Could it be that I'm paranoid? Zheng Kang isn't here?" Jiang Yue once wondered if there was something wrong with his judgment.

But the obviously suppressed movement just now was definitely not an illusion.Jiang Yue asked himself that he still had this sensitivity.

Jiang Yue was not discouraged, and slowly radiated his mental power, trying to find some living things in the surrounding 30-meter area.

In such a huge dense forest, there are always some small animals or something.

Jiang Yue can borrow any living creature.

In this way, it is undoubtedly possible to observe the situation around the dense forest from multiple angles. Within a circle with a radius of 30 meters, Jiang Yue can capture any situation at the first time.

But what surprised him was that after walking for so long, he didn't find a single living thing.

There is not a single small animal in this huge dense forest?Not even a roosting night bird?
No, no!
With the ecology of this dense forest, even if there are no large beasts, there will always be some insects, snakes, frogs, and mice, and it is impossible to not even have a single living thing.

Jiang Yue's pores stood up slightly.

At this moment, he already knew that something was absolutely wrong with this dense forest.

Is this dense forest connected to hell?Is it the entrance to hell?Otherwise, why can't even find a small animal?

Obviously not in line with common sense!
